Wow! I just did a bunch of these except going offline and my game is playable again. For the past two weeks, the simulation lag was so bad that most of my Sim day was spent waiting to go to the next action. Thank you!
These tips along with the simulation lag fix mod and the simulation lag unclogger mod saved my game. I don’t have the fastest computer and my loading screens were taking over 10 minutes, so my Sims would never leave the house. Now my loading time is almost cut in half thanks to this 💕 How often should we be deleting the Sims 4 cache?
Ahhh, such great news, friend! Glad to hear that! Well, you don't need to do it pretty often, I highly suggest deleting cache after updating your game & after getting rid of broken mods/cc. You can obviously delete it whenever you feel like your game is a lil bit laggier than usual! Hope you have a nice day! 🥰❤️
THANK YOU my game has been so laggy!!! I couldn't even get to the gallery even with strong wifi - I had to close my game 6 times!! Ima try and just save some houses/households that I don't use to my library and delete their games. I don't usually feel like doing it but ig I should, thx for reminding me :)
TYSM U SAVED MY GAME!! I was getting so frustrated cause for some of my cc to work I needed the graphics high and it was lagging to much but NOT ANYMORE
I used to play sims with low graphics and it still lagged :/ but when I followed what you did the game runs perfectly fine for me and I'm even playing on high graphics now ty
I don't really comment on YT, but the amount of help I got from this video made me comment here! Amazing! I didn't follow all of the tips, since I still have a hundred GB left on the C: drive & all that… but it truly, truly helps. Reduced the loading screen time from 15min to 5min! Thanks a lot ❤ [Subscribed]
That is absolutely amazing! I did not think for a second that these tips could have such immense impact on the loading screen time! Kinda insaneeee! So thank you so so much for your kind words, those really mean a lot to me! Hope you have a wonderful day! 🥺❤️
omg you're a life saver. I was completely lost on why my game was lagging so bad, but after watching this I checked my library and for some reason it had a bunch of the default buildings and characters saved? I deleted them and now my game is running much smoother, thank you!
Good advises. It's always worth it to move as much as your data to your secondary drive(s) as possible. Keep your programs and application separate from your data. A nice side effect is that, if you need to reformat and reinstall your OS, your data are safe on that other drive. Your desktop is NOT a storage area, it should be reserved to your most used shortcuts, not complete files.
Second that. I was unlucky enough to get a very weird virus on my gaming PC. Had to get Windows newly set up on another drive to fix it. I was basically able to redownload the gaming clients and start playing again as if nothing happened because I've always installed my games on other drives.
Tysm! This really works & I didn’t even have to do much! Deleted broken cc & some maxi homes then went completely offline switched to laptop mode! My game is running sooo much faster! This works! ❤️
I was getting so frustrated playing the game because it was laggy and super slow! I tried these tips and OMG it worked!!! I’m so excited 😂😂😂 thank you ❤
06:54 If you need permission another way to bypass this is by going into the folders themselves and delete everything that's in there. Then go back to that same folder and now you can delete it. If the folder had nothing in it then simply opening it, going back, and deleting the folder will do the trick.
Things I'd love to see in Dine Out. 1.) Longer hours of operation without the workers getting tired. I'd love to have longer restaurant gameplay. 2.) A gradual closing process. I hate how the restaurant just shuts down and customers don't get to finish their meals and workers don't clean up the mess for closing 3.) The glitch in the workers when you accidentally remove a requirement to build the restaurant. When you do that the workers are all removed and you'd have to re hire sims, re do their training, experience & pay. Super frustrating having to constantly start over! 4.) More tables and chair options 5.) More CHEFS and HOSTS!!!!
I did all of these amazing tips. Please make sure, as well, that your graphics card is okay. Mine was completely disabled (idk how that happened still) so just make sure that you check that, too.
Wow thank you so much for this video. Everytime I play The Sims 4 on my ps4, it would lag sooo bad that it would turn me off from actually playing it. Good thing I say let me research why I am having this problem. Again thank you so much it really worked. Now the game is sailing like a dream
I recently deleted the sims because I was getting frustrated bc of the lag but now I’m re-downloading so I can try this! I’ll let you know if it works for me!!
I haven't really done anything, my game were so laggy before but somehow today it's so smooth, I just deleted like 3 household that i didn't use, well I'm glad i don't have to do much work now, i even changed the graphic settings from low to medium, it's still a bit laggy but acceptable tho
I'm so happy to know you could improve your gameplay, even just a bit! I actually have a whole series on this very topic if you're willing to take a look! Hope it helps and have a nice day! 😊 ruclips.net/p/PLrHgpu6NEydPTXDSVVp9mtn_EYq-XnQq_
It's truly the least I could do for you!! Thank YOU for letting me know how it all went, it's truly amazing to hear that you've noticed such a huge difference in your game!! Now it's a great time to start a 100 baby challenge, since it does not lag, right? 😂 I genuinely hope you have lots of fun creating & playing with your sims fams!
@@lahnaslife7542 wait is something going on? I just got cottage living like 2 days ago but i havent been able to play much cause ever since i downloaded it, its insanely slow. Loading screen takes decades long, i can't do anything, and my sims just stand there and do nothing.
Thank you for the documents folder info. if over 5 GBs in the downloads folder is bad, try almost 10GB. I had no idea things took up so much space on there!!!
@@Darielle I love your videos so much you've helped me a lot!! BTW question for the realistic pregnancy mod by pandasama do you need the get to work expansion pack to experience your sim having a baby at the hospital?
All I did was the going off-line thing and everything runs perfectly I spent 2 1/2 days taking out my putting mods in getting tricked that it works but then after 20 minutes and start messing up now I have like almost every mod I’ve had running and it’s running smoothly
Whenever I load my game it moves si smoothly in CAS and on the Main Menu. But when I load a household with a lot of sims , my game will start to lag. When I load my game with one sim with no house it’s so smooth and when I put cc in a house it lags badly.
You can also try to delete some items from your Sims' inventories, remove some build & buy objects that make your game run slow (such as fountains, mirrors and any other animated items). Besides that, please try to also take a look at this: ruclips.net/video/42oaMdbt1TU/видео.html Let me know if it helps!
Guys another tip I just found out to make your sims game run faster is to clean your pic air vents. So like if your computer is running hot that will slow down the performance
Just tried most of these and my game definitely run and load so much faster 😭😭❤️ although I accidentally deleted my saved game😭😂😂 wasnt too far in tho so I didnt mind.
Ahhh 🥹❤️ did we delete the save from the game or did we delete the save file? I have a video about recovering save files, might be of help, but I don’t know the exact situation ruclips.net/video/0igTmVE_gK8/видео.html Hope I can help 🫶🏻 thank you so much for being here, I love reading your comments
Hello there! I'm sorry to hear that! How did it all go? If you're still facing this issue, I literally have a whole playlist on how to make Sims run faster: ruclips.net/p/PLrHgpu6NEydPTXDSVVp9mtn_EYq-XnQq_ Fingers crossed it works for you! 🤗
First of all great video and I really appreciate you bringing up the topics of how other things can take into account the lag and not just they game itself. You have earned a like I see a lot of people in the comments that didn't hear her topic on how having a lot of mods and custom content will also affect your game despite the mod so I'll just comment it here. Please do not blame the actual developers of the Sims 4 for your lag problems. I see that most people have these issues when you have a cheap laptop or too much custom content and mods. With a decent laptop and not too many of the mods and custom content your game can run perfectly fine. I don't have any of these issues anymore after I got myself a better laptop and no longer need this mod. The Sims 4 is a great game with or without mod please stop disrespecting the developers and giving the modders more credit than the developers that MAKE the game that you are playing. They deserve just as much respect
Ahhh tysmmm, you're so kind! Well, think of the cache the same way you'd think about your browser's cache. Those are some temporary files that keep on accumulating every time you start your game and deleting those once in a while will free up some space & make your game load a bit faster if that makes sense!
hey love, im trying to find the other video you did to help the game run faster. the one where you teach how to remove files in the run setting and how to do a new sims 4 folder
O M G, cuz this video, i removed all my download files from Download folder, and now my drive C have free 61gb that before just free 42gb :3 AND IT'S WORKING altough kinda lagging sometimes
I'm soooo glad, omg!! The Downloads folder can be insanely huge ahahah! But it's better than before, that's what matters, after all! You can also try to remove some useful cc that you might have in your Mods folder, this will surely make your game run faster! And you can actually visualise all of your cc using a program called Sims 4 studio! It just makes removing your cc 10 times easier!
also if some of u guys use the cracked version and u see something pop up where it says u can login, go offline or log out, try going offline it helps reduce lag
The problem for me was that i had a copy of the Sims 4 folder which had old data from 2021 inside (it's 2024 now, when i write this comment). I've deleted it, together with all of the old savegames, because i've made a safety copy of the newer ones anyway, and it worked fine again.
The reason why I needed this vid was Whenever I sent my Sim to work let me tell you they *NEVER* COMES HOME I SAT THERE WITH MY SIMS DOG WAITING FOR HER FOR 1 AND A HALF HOURS LIKE WTFFF
@@Darielle after doing that and all the steps my sim town that I made was still extremely laggy but my sim on my own is not as laggy. But that’ll be good until I get a better pic
I'd be more than happy to help! What can I do for you? I happen to have two other videos that talk about some more ways to make your Sims 4 faster, so here we go: ruclips.net/video/42oaMdbt1TU/видео.html ruclips.net/video/axOiswFjVxE/видео.html
Did someone had an issue where the sims 4 only lag during the gameplay and other than that everything run smoothly (faster) etc the loading screen speed? 😥😑
I have done everything to make my game work properly. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, done all the instructions but when I go back to the game, the audio keeps skipping, repeating like a scratched CD. also, I have tried freeing up space but it seems as if the issue is that since the sims 4 is such a big game, it seems like that's the reason why my storage space is full. I have cleared all I could and the red bar is still there.
Hello there! Sorry to hear that, here are some tips that may help: You can try to reset your EA folder and then place only updated versions for your mods, as shown in here: ruclips.net/video/-pCFvTcqQnQ/видео.html Keep in mind that you should not delete the old EA folder in order to copy all of your saves, tray, screenshots & cc and paste those into your newly generated EA folder. The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ruclips.net/video/WncYhAAtKcM/видео.html) Last but not least, if you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc: ruclips.net/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/видео.html Let me know if it helps! 🤗
I have no houses and when i try to make one it literally just sits there and loads, it doesn’t do anything but load, it lets me make the characters and everything but when i try to save and play it just loads and i can’t do anything but wait, it’s annoying, what can i do to fix that?
Do you use mods/cc in your game? If so, did you make sure to update all of your mods after the 25th of February update? If you didn't, you can follow these steps: Rename your Electronic Arts folder in 'Electronic Arts OLD' and make a copy of this 'Electronic Arts OLD' folder & paste it on your Desktop, just to have a backup of your save files (do not delete this folder, you'll need it later on!). If you happen to use an antivirus, please try to add an exception for both your Sims 4 & Origin programs, as well as for the following websites: thesims.com & origin.com. Make sure to allow both Sims 4 & Origin within your firewall. Repair your game through Origin and then try to launch it and see if it works. If so, go to Game Options > Other > enable cc, mods and script mods. You can now fully exit your game, go to your Documents folder and a new EA folder should show up. Repair your game through Origin (go to Game Library > right click on Sims > Repair). Once this process is completed, you're free to copy your Saves, Tray and Screenshots files from your old Saves, Tray and Screenshots folders to your new Saves, Tray and Screenshots folders (located in your new EA folder). Launch your game and check if everything works properly. If so, you can copy your old cc from your old Mods folder to the newly generated Mods folder (in small batches!!) and make sure to open your game every single time you paste those just to make sure that everything works properly. If you still encounter this issue, please try to identify the problematic cc and remove it from your Mods folder. Btw, you should place your cc into your main Mods folder, do not use subfolders as some cc might not show up in the game. As far as mods go, make sure to download once again the updated versions for your mods (especially if you're using Adult mods!), extract them, copy and paste those files in your new Mods folder. Open your game and check if your issue is fixed. Let me know if this helps!
did not really work for me 😭😭😭😭 I have great graphic card, my CPU is good enough, i have enough space and it still does not do much. how is that possible ? my Sims used to work great on 140 FPS for ALL the time and now it barely reaches that number, only if there is nothing going on in the game. please help
@@Dariellehello, so i reinstalled my entire windows, as i needed to do it, because i had things i did not use, and it just needed it, and now it seems to be better, even though i am not hitting 130-140 all the time, but it does hit most of the time, and seems like i was also having this before, so i guess its fixed now, thank you 😊
Yesss, having your Sims installed on an external drive would def make things a lot smoother! Do pay attention to the read/write speeds, the higher, the better!
NOOOOO! I deleted an older save like you recommended and it literally deleted all of my play content from the last 3 years!! I’m so upset 😭😭 and there’s no way for me to recover it. I’m seriously starting from scratch.
I'm so sorry! Did you try to restore it from your Recycle bin? I have a video that might help you recover your save files: ruclips.net/video/0igTmVE_gK8/видео.html
thank you for this my game still lags but only when I turn my camera which doesn't really bother me that much but now at least my laptop isn't overheating that much since the game is not causing any problems 🙃
My game is not laggy it just freezes out of nowhere. To be exact it freezes for like 10 sec goes back to normal then repeat. I dont have alot of things on it cuz i just downloded it. Im so confused!!!
Do you use script mods & cc? If so, have you updated your script mods? You could also try to disable online features in your Game Settings & see if it makes a difference
my sims game is to the point where half of my buttons are misplaced or just not there. i can’t open a vet/restaurant because when i do, all of the buttons on my screen are non existent and i have to restart my whole computer! this has been going on for awhile, i want to be able to play the sims without lag or any trouble again 😭, does anyone know how to fix it?
ohh 😣 you can then try to reset your EA folder as shown in this video, but make sure you keep the EA old folder in order to copy+paste the files that you have inside your Saves, Screenshots, Tray & Mods folders into the new EA/Saves, Screenshots, Tray & Mods folders. Hope it makes sense! Let me know how it goes! ruclips.net/video/-Li2QdY7HB8/видео.html

Thanks for sharing this with me! Did it all go perfect this time, too? Fingers crossed 🤗🤞
@@Darielle yes it improved I just hope they fix whatever’s going on with the game 😭
Ahhh, I hope so, too!! 🥺
@@lahnaslife7542 wait is something going on? I just got cottage living like 2 days ago but i havent been able to play much cause ever since i downloaded it, its insanely slow. Loading screen takes decades long, i can't do anything, and my sims just stand there and do nothing.
@@bella-co4vg honestly I think so because a lot of simmers are having problems with and without cc in game .. even the ones with high end PCs 😭
Thank you for the documents folder info. if over 5 GBs in the downloads folder is bad, try almost 10GB. I had no idea things took up so much space on there!!!
your voice omggggg😍
ur INCREDIBLE!!! everything u say makes perfect sense. thank u so much i cant evennnnnn!!
Ayyyy, so happy I could help you out in a way!!!
@@Darielle thank u!!
you are amazing!! and underated :)
Ahhh you're too sweet! Thank you so so much, it means a lot 🥺
My sims 4 game is so laggy it's practically unplayable sooo I'm really excited to try these and see if they work fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞
How did it go, friend? 🤗
@@Darielle I didn't try it yet I will let u know when I do 😁
@@7tterfly_1 cannot wait to hear back from you! Hope it all goes well! 🤗
@@7tterfly_1 did you do it
I deleted all the unnecessary plots and people in my library and it reduced a bit of lag tysm!
You're so incredibly welcome!! Have you also tried to disable online features? It might help a bit more, too! :)
@@Darielle I did just now
@@Darielle it did help!
@@Nda78240 ayyy this makes me so happy!
@@Darielle I love your videos so much you've helped me a lot!! BTW question for the realistic pregnancy mod by pandasama do you need the get to work expansion pack to experience your sim having a baby at the hospital?
YAS thank you so much you are my saviour
Ohhh thank you for watching this lil video! I truly hope this helped!
does this work for a torrent downloaded sims 4?
(I couldn't afford it on origin/steam, don't judge me-)
Hi! I suppose it should work, but when it comes to deleting your cache, you'll need to only delete your Sims 4 game cache.
Same loll
It does! -a fellow always pirate
This was super helpfu, tysm!!
No problem!! I'm here to help! Have the most exciting sims gaming session ever!!
I wish you a stunning & wonderful new year!! ✨️ hope you're good 🤗
@@Darielle Thank you so much! That just made my day. ✨
Thank you ☺️ i now can play my games so smooth 😍 love you 🥰🦋👐
Ayyyy, so exciting! Sending lots of hugs your waaaay 🥰🥰
All I did was the going off-line thing and everything runs perfectly I spent 2 1/2 days taking out my putting mods in getting tricked that it works but then after 20 minutes and start messing up now I have like almost every mod I’ve had running and it’s running smoothly
So all I have to do is play offline?
It's great to hear that your game runs smoothly! Going offline can really change this whole situation
Whenever I load my game it moves si smoothly in CAS and on the Main Menu. But when I load a household with a lot of sims , my game will start to lag. When I load my game with one sim with no house it’s so smooth and when I put cc in a house it lags badly.
You can also try to delete some items from your Sims' inventories, remove some build & buy objects that make your game run slow (such as fountains, mirrors and any other animated items). Besides that, please try to also take a look at this: ruclips.net/video/42oaMdbt1TU/видео.html
Let me know if it helps!
@@Darielle it works thank you so much!! My game runs much smoother 🥰
Guys another tip I just found out to make your sims game run faster is to clean your pic air vents. So like if your computer is running hot that will slow down the performance
Thank you so much for sharing, I appreciate it a whole lot 🙏 can confirm that dust really makes things laggy!
Time for a spring cleanup hihi ^^
@@Darielle OMG YOU REPLIED TO ME 😭😭😭😭
Just tried most of these and my game definitely run and load so much faster 😭😭❤️ although I accidentally deleted my saved game😭😂😂 wasnt too far in tho so I didnt mind.
Ahhh 🥹❤️ did we delete the save from the game or did we delete the save file?
I have a video about recovering save files, might be of help, but I don’t know the exact situation ruclips.net/video/0igTmVE_gK8/видео.html
Hope I can help 🫶🏻 thank you so much for being here, I love reading your comments
@@Darielledidn’t realize you responded 😂😂 but from the game it was deleted
@@tiashakelsey1427 no worries! then there’s a way to rename certain files in order to get a previous save back, it’s in that video 🙏
Hey! i really love your videos could you make a video showing what you use to edit your videos?
Hiii! Thank you so so much! I'm glad you like them! Sure, I'll upload a video on that at some point! 🤗
@@Darielle thank you so much! 💖
I literally have 810 of 900 gb still left of storage yet my game is so laggy🤧 hopefully this works
Hello there! I'm sorry to hear that! How did it all go? If you're still facing this issue, I literally have a whole playlist on how to make Sims run faster: ruclips.net/p/PLrHgpu6NEydPTXDSVVp9mtn_EYq-XnQq_
Fingers crossed it works for you! 🤗
First of all great video and I really appreciate you bringing up the topics of how other things can take into account the lag and not just they game itself. You have earned a like
I see a lot of people in the comments that didn't hear her topic on how having a lot of mods and custom content will also affect your game despite the mod so I'll just comment it here.
Please do not blame the actual developers of the Sims 4 for your lag problems. I see that most people have these issues when you have a cheap laptop or too much custom content and mods. With a decent laptop and not too many of the mods and custom content your game can run perfectly fine. I don't have any of these issues anymore after I got myself a better laptop and no longer need this mod. The Sims 4 is a great game with or without mod please stop disrespecting the developers and giving the modders more credit than the developers that MAKE the game that you are playing. They deserve just as much respect
LIFESAVER!! thanks so much
I'm the one to be thankful 🥺💞
You sound exactly like Fantayzia 👁👄👁
This helped a lot thankyou so much
So so glad it did, you're most welcome!
hello! i was just wondering what deleting the cache does also i love your accent!
Ahhh tysmmm, you're so kind! Well, think of the cache the same way you'd think about your browser's cache. Those are some temporary files that keep on accumulating every time you start your game and deleting those once in a while will free up some space & make your game load a bit faster if that makes sense!
@@Darielle i get it now!! thank you so much for the help, this was very needed
I’m about to try:)
@Ashlyn Goodin yes I actually played it 5 minutes ago
wow this helped me sm!!
🤗🤗🤗🤗
You are a LIFESAVER thank you! My game is running much smoother now 💕 How often do you recommend we clear the cache files?
🙏🙏❤️ I do this after every single update, after deleting the outdated/broken mods from the Mods folder
THANK YOUT HIS HELPED SO MUCH ILY🤩🥰💜🥰
Sending lots of good thoughts your way 🙏🙏
hey love, im trying to find the other video you did to help the game run faster. the one where you teach how to remove files in the run setting and how to do a new sims 4 folder
There are 2 of them
ruclips.net/video/42oaMdbt1TU/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/GeWvcMUNnuI/видео.html
I usually dont lag but i got gshaders and now i do, so i looked this up to lag les and it helped
I really hope this works :( thanks for the Spanish subtitles ¿
Thank you so much! 🤩
You're so incredibly welcome ✨️🙏 hope your game runs at it fullest potential, i'm wishing you all the best!!
O M G, cuz this video, i removed all my download files from Download folder, and now my drive C have free 61gb that before just free 42gb :3
AND IT'S WORKING
altough kinda lagging sometimes
I'm soooo glad, omg!! The Downloads folder can be insanely huge ahahah! But it's better than before, that's what matters, after all! You can also try to remove some useful cc that you might have in your Mods folder, this will surely make your game run faster! And you can actually visualise all of your cc using a program called Sims 4 studio! It just makes removing your cc 10 times easier!
@@Darielle thankyou so much!!
also if some of u guys use the cracked version and u see something pop up where it says u can login, go offline or log out, try going offline it helps reduce lag
Mines show me that but I click login so that I can go on the gallery
My game never use to show me that but since i update sims 4 it showing login, go offline or log out
thanks a ton!! new subbie
You're most welcomeee, so glad to hear that! Hope you have a wonderful time here!
The problem for me was that i had a copy of the Sims 4 folder which had old data from 2021 inside (it's 2024 now, when i write this comment). I've deleted it, together with all of the old savegames, because i've made a safety copy of the newer ones anyway, and it worked fine again.
you got my sub
Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Subscribed🥰🥰💞
Sending lots of blessings your way! 🙏🙏
The reason why I needed this vid was Whenever I sent my Sim to work let me tell you they *NEVER* COMES HOME I SAT THERE WITH MY SIMS DOG WAITING FOR HER FOR 1 AND A HALF HOURS LIKE WTFFF
So does your Sim come back now? Or are you still facing the same issue?
Yea She does comes home now ! :D but For some reason they comes home bald.... 😔😭😭
probs Brocken CC 💀
@@mumuaye3241 LOL
Very helpfull. Thanks!!
You're always welcome!
The huge amount of maxis houses in my library no wonder why it’s soo laggy💀
@@Darielle after doing that and all the steps my sim town that I made was still extremely laggy but my sim on my own is not as laggy. But that’ll be good until I get a better pic
Very useful ty❤
You’re welcome 🙏
Why my pc local disk does not show Program data
doing it now hope it works ❤️
How did it go? 🥰
@@Darielle it didn’t do me any good :(
@@Darielle need some help :(
I'd be more than happy to help! What can I do for you? I happen to have two other videos that talk about some more ways to make your Sims 4 faster, so here we go:
ruclips.net/video/42oaMdbt1TU/видео.html
ruclips.net/video/axOiswFjVxE/видео.html
Did someone had an issue where the sims 4 only lag during the gameplay and other than that everything run smoothly (faster) etc the loading screen speed? 😥😑
Somewhat, except when I first open the game it takes like 10-15 minutes to load. (I do have a lot of cc tho so that adds on to it.
I have the same issue. Everything but the actual game play is smooth. I practically have to force my sims to move
I have done everything to make my game work properly. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, done all the instructions but when I go back to the game, the audio keeps skipping, repeating like a scratched CD.
also, I have tried freeing up space but it seems as if the issue is that since the sims 4 is such a big game, it seems like that's the reason why my storage space is full. I have cleared all I could and the red bar is still there.
Hello there! Sorry to hear that, here are some tips that may help:
You can try to reset your EA folder and then place only updated versions for your mods, as shown in here: ruclips.net/video/-pCFvTcqQnQ/видео.html
Keep in mind that you should not delete the old EA folder in order to copy all of your saves, tray, screenshots & cc and paste those into your newly generated EA folder.
The other alternative would be scanning your Mods folder by using this BE mod & deleting your files that show up in your report list (here's a helpful tutorial: ruclips.net/video/WncYhAAtKcM/видео.html)
Last but not least, if you haven't tried this already, there's also the 50/50 method that allows you to determine the problematic cc: ruclips.net/video/kp_fdyXQCfE/видео.html
Let me know if it helps! 🤗
I have no houses and when i try to make one it literally just sits there and loads, it doesn’t do anything but load, it lets me make the characters and everything but when i try to save and play it just loads and i can’t do anything but wait, it’s annoying, what can i do to fix that?
Do you use mods/cc in your game? If so, did you make sure to update all of your mods after the 25th of February update? If you didn't, you can follow these steps:
Rename your Electronic Arts folder in 'Electronic Arts OLD' and make a copy of this 'Electronic Arts OLD' folder & paste it on your Desktop, just to have a backup of your save files (do not delete this folder, you'll need it later on!). If you happen to use an antivirus, please try to add an exception for both your Sims 4 & Origin programs, as well as for the following websites: thesims.com & origin.com. Make sure to allow both Sims 4 & Origin within your firewall.
Repair your game through Origin and then try to launch it and see if it works. If so, go to Game Options > Other > enable cc, mods and script mods. You can now fully exit your game, go to your Documents folder and a new EA folder should show up. Repair your game through Origin (go to Game Library > right click on Sims > Repair). Once this process is completed, you're free to copy your Saves, Tray and Screenshots files from your old Saves, Tray and Screenshots folders to your new Saves, Tray and Screenshots folders (located in your new EA folder). Launch your game and check if everything works properly. If so, you can copy your old cc from your old Mods folder to the newly generated Mods folder (in small batches!!) and make sure to open your game every single time you paste those just to make sure that everything works properly. If you still encounter this issue, please try to identify the problematic cc and remove it from your Mods folder. Btw, you should place your cc into your main Mods folder, do not use subfolders as some cc might not show up in the game. As far as mods go, make sure to download once again the updated versions for your mods (especially if you're using Adult mods!), extract them, copy and paste those files in your new Mods folder. Open your game and check if your issue is fixed.
Let me know if this helps!
did not really work for me 😭😭😭😭 I have great graphic card, my CPU is good enough, i have enough space and it still does not do much. how is that possible ? my Sims used to work great on 140 FPS for ALL the time and now it barely reaches that number, only if there is nothing going on in the game. please help
Hello! I'm so sorry to hear this! Do you happen to use lots of mods & cc?
@@Dariellehello, so i reinstalled my entire windows, as i needed to do it, because i had things i did not use, and it just needed it, and now it seems to be better, even though i am not hitting 130-140 all the time, but it does hit most of the time, and seems like i was also having this before, so i guess its fixed now, thank you 😊
No worries! I'm so glad you managed to fix your issue! Hope you have a great day!
Do you think using a external hard drive would help as well? Thanks for this video!
Yesss, having your Sims installed on an external drive would def make things a lot smoother! Do pay attention to the read/write speeds, the higher, the better!
Wha does a external hard drive do
NOOOOO! I deleted an older save like you recommended and it literally deleted all of my play content from the last 3 years!! I’m so upset 😭😭 and there’s no way for me to recover it. I’m seriously starting from scratch.
I'm so sorry! Did you try to restore it from your Recycle bin? I have a video that might help you recover your save files: ruclips.net/video/0igTmVE_gK8/видео.html
Have a question, I heard if you also get rid of stuff in inventory of Sims households, it will also stop the lag or freezing up. Is this true?
Amazing video! God bless you all🙏🏽God is so good🙌🏽Jesus loves us all so much🙏🏽❤Turn to God He will guide you and give you strength🙏🏽Trust in Him
I have EA folding not orgins
thank you for this my game still lags but only when I turn my camera which doesn't really bother me that much but now at least my laptop isn't overheating that much since the game is not causing any problems 🙃
Thank you so much!
So glad to be of help!!
My game is not laggy it just freezes out of nowhere. To be exact it freezes for like 10 sec goes back to normal then repeat. I dont have alot of things on it cuz i just downloded it. Im so confused!!!
Do you use script mods & cc? If so, have you updated your script mods?
You could also try to disable online features in your Game Settings & see if it makes a difference
OMG, TYTYTY
You're so so welcome ☺️
my sims game is to the point where half of my buttons are misplaced or just not there. i can’t open a vet/restaurant because when i do, all of the buttons on my screen are non existent and i have to restart my whole computer! this has been going on for awhile, i want to be able to play the sims without lag or any trouble again 😭, does anyone know how to fix it?
ohh 😣
you can then try to reset your EA folder as shown in this video, but make sure you keep the EA old folder in order to copy+paste the files that you have inside your Saves, Screenshots, Tray & Mods folders into the new EA/Saves, Screenshots, Tray & Mods folders.
Hope it makes sense! Let me know how it goes!
ruclips.net/video/-Li2QdY7HB8/видео.html
omg! tysm i will def check out some of your videos and hopefully it works!
You're so welcome! Fingers crossed it works! 😊
